# std::ranges::drop_view<V>::size

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | ranges‎ | drop view

constexpr auto size() requires ranges::sized_range<V>; | (1) | (since C++20)
constexpr auto size() const requires ranges::sized_range<const V>; | (2) | (since C++20)

Returns the number of elements.

Let `base_` be the underlying view, `count_` be the stored count (the number passed to the constructor, or ​0​ if *this is default constructed). Equivalent to:

    const auto s = ranges::size(base_);
    const auto c = static_cast<decltype(s)>(count_);
    return s < c ? 0 : s - c;

### Parameters

(none)

### Return value

The number of elements.

### Example

Run this code

    #include <array>
    #include <ranges>

    int main()
    {
        constexpr std::array a{42, 43, 44};
        static_assert(std::ranges::drop_view{std::views::all(a), 0}.size() == 3);
        static_assert(std::ranges::drop_view{std::views::all(a), 1}.size() == 2);
        static_assert(std::ranges::drop_view{std::views::all(a), 2}.size() == 1);
        static_assert(std::ranges::drop_view{std::views::all(a), 3}.size() == 0);
        static_assert(std::ranges::drop_view{std::views::all(a), 4}.size() == 0);
    }
